We’re clapping it up for Leela James this morning after ‘Billboard’ magazine gave her much deserved recognition.

So what made Billboard give her the nod now?
“James’ latest single, ‘Don’t Want You Back,’ may be her best release to date, easily locating a middle ground between Southern soul and the juddering, pugnacious production more popular today.”
